Exploring the versatility of hand built clay forms.

My continuing interest is in the impression of motion resulting from the interaction of angles, curves, and arcs I achieve through assembling freehand shapes cut from slabs of clay. This interaction within pieces and between pieces further advances a sense of story as disparate impressions coalesce into new and changing expressions.
